Overview
Mission
To help get food to people who are hungry during a time when food insecurity is sharply on the rise and food donations are on the decline. Whether you're an individual, family, scout troop, team, company, church, or other organization, our goal is to provide you with a safe and easy way to help people who need food.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.

The verdict
